One of the best hikes or walks in the world, and I've been around some! For crowd avoidance and amazing peace park at the shrine and walk from there. Unmissable!

The views are amazing. Pack lots of water for a hot day, and the hike is a little more strenuous than you think. Coming down takes energy too!

Hey tourist! I 1000% recommend hiking Lion's Head! The view is amazing & it'll only take you 2-3 hrs (vs. all day for Table Mtn). Don't fear the "harder path". ps: Bonus pts if it's your honeymoon!

Whatever you do make sure you have reached the peak by sunset. Then it gets TOO dark and dangerous to hike down! It takes approx 90mins to reach the peak from the side coffee shop

Go up an hour before sunset and take some snacks and a bottle of Backsberg tread lightly. See the sun set over the ocean and turn 180 and see the lights go on in town. Priceless. Take a small torch.

Be weary of going up Lions Head for the full moon if you like to hike quickly. There are often a lot more people hiking than you would expect. This does make it quite festive though.
